More from the hand-written Haikū archives.
Asphalt - 27 Jul 10
Searching for you now
you left no trace of footprints
in asphalt deserts
Hook - 28 Jul 10
You know what you did ...
bait was set, I swallowed it,
hook, line and sinker
Beyond - 28 Jul 10
In the spaces beyond
all dreams and imaginings
I will wait for you
Foremost - 29 Jul 10
In my mind ... foremost
thoughts of you always with me
I'll never forget
Fantasy - 29 Jul 10
Fantasy ... I play
stirring my dreams ~ bringing thoughts
up to the surface
I don't think that "Beyond" was inspired by Rumi's poem because, at that time, I don't think that I was aware of his writings ~ though it does feel like one of his.
There will be more Haikū and things to come soon.

i enjoyed ALL of these very much ~ wonderful haikū! i'm not familiar with Rumi's poem that you refer to, though "Beyond" is my favorite of this group.
ReplyDeleteStrictly Rumi didn't write poetry though his insights and spiritual comments are often transcribed as poems. The quote I alluded to was ...
Delete“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there."
Not the same but similar in feel.
Thank you for your Lovely comments dani ♥
